At
the time of his capture in 1881, Lewis Redmond was the most famous
outlaw in the country, outshining contemporaries Billy-The-Kid and
Jesse James. To the people of Southern Appalachia he was an American
Robin Hood, fighting revenuers and bootlegging ‘moonshine’
to pay their taxes and save their land in the lean and hopeless years
of Reconstruction. Northern journalists depicted him as a degenerate,
cold-blooded murderer, even as Southern Appalachia celebrated him
as a hero. Gary Carden's masterful play sheds light on a time and
place in American history that has long been shrouded in mystery.

in the movies. Thanks for the great work.” – Greg Cunningham,
